Social Entrepreneurship Research as a Means of Transformation : A Vision for the Year 2028

In this essay we suggest directions and perspectives for social
entrepreneurship research that could result in a state in which
social entrepreneurship would have become mainstream. This includes
the need to delineate and define social entrepreneurship
vis-à-vis commercial entrepreneurship, the question of growth
and scaling up of social ventures, the role of social
entrepreneurship on a macroeconomic level, and the use of critical
theory as a theoretical lens. Our recommendations are inspired by a
Professional Development Workshop on 'Social Entrepreneurship:
Future Directions in Education and Research' organized by the
authors at the Academy of Management Conference 2010 in
Montréal
